Br05-Box Load Per Pile

This document provides calculations for loads on a railway bridge pier including: 1) Superimposed dead loads from sleepers and ballast totaling 28.14 kN/m. 2) Lateral earth pressure and superimposed dead load pressure of 20.98 kN/m^2 at the base increasing to 61.48 kN/m^2 at a depth of 6.75m. 3) Live load pressure of 11.60 kN/m^2 from passing trains.
